mk223, are you positive it was a runway incursion? Information I've read shows it took place on a taxiway (near 4L at the approach end, possibly on B at the J intersection. Actually listed as a hotspot on the taxiway diagram (HS 1). http://204.108.4.16/d-tpp/1107/00058AD.PDF

If you're not positive it's a runway incursion, could you retitle the thread? Calling it an incursion gives it a different meaning and the press looking for audio clips may get a false impression of what happened.

Yeah, I couldnt figure out what flight that was, I went to the tower feed and couldnt make it out. Per another plane person, which I agree with is that they declared an emergency based on fuel levels as once they landed, they didnt need equipment. Not that it wasnt serious or anything, but it certainly did make for a full plate for the controllers.

Was there nothing relevent archived before this clip begins? What clearances/taxi instructions were the two aircraft given prior to the collision? Anything in the archives to indicate why the RJ came to a stop where it did?

Here's the edited audio of all ground movements of both planes before the collision from both the ground and both tower frequencies. Everything is in chronological order although all non relevant transmissions and empty space has been edited out.

I tend to get lost easily on the airport diagram, but is it possible that the CRJ in front had just turned north onto mike while the 767 was heading east on bravo - the CRJ turned but the 767 didn't allow enough spacing and the left wing hit the tail that way?
